completed PWR 1, perhaps you're curious about what more you
might have learn about writing and rhetoric and what this
sophomore year requirement has to offer. The goals of PWR
2 are as follows:
| PWR
2 GOALS: In
order to promote consistency between sections, all PWR
2 classes contain as their centerpiece a major research
assignment consisting of several parts, some written
and some oral. Components of the research project include
a research proposal, a research-based essay, an oral
presentation incorporating appropriate media support,
and a final reflective piece on what students have learned
about the effective presentation of research. The course
requires 18-25 pages of revised writing and 16-20 minutes
of revised presentations. Students revise each major
assignment. In-class workshops are augmented by individual
conferences with the PWR instructor and with Oral Communication
Tutors.
